Baby Audrey

Remember back in November we did some maternity portraits of Magda for the class. We focused on lighting and posing, and I have to say, I was really impressed with the results everyone was able to produce. Well as nature would have it, Magda gave birth to a beautiful baby girl named Audrey. This gave us yet again another photo opportunity to conduct a class. If any of you have tried to photograph newborns before, you know how challenging it can be. I think the most challenging part was the fact that Audrey was just so adorable that no one could leave her alone, and so shooting and learning took the back seat as we couldn't help ourselves around baby Audrey. Here are some samples of that shoot. Don't you just want to squeeze her?

Charity Portrait Day was a SUCCESS!

I just wanted to thank everyone who participated in this event to help make this happen!

We were very busy on December 12, 2009, we had over 35 bookings and were able to raise almost $1000 that we donated to The Good Shepherd's Hamilton Foodbank in the form of Metro Gift Cards. All the participants went home with a beautiful 8x12 portrait and a grocery bag full of goodies! This event was photographed by myself and the 2 other wonderful photographers that I share a studio with, Geoff Carruthers (who planned the event) and Julie Thompson. I would also like to thank the people that volunteered to help out with organizing, assisting, ushering, etc... Thank you to all the business that donated their food. I know it was a tiring day for everyone, but what a great experience. Hope you all had as much fun as I did! Here are just a few samples from December 12...
